Question

【題目】A couple had a son eleven years after they married. They were a loving couple and the boy was the apple of their eye. When the boy was around four years old, one day the father was very tired after work so he asked his wife to pick up their son. The mother, who was very busy in the kitchen, totally forgot about it.

Later the boy lost his way on the street. When the son was found missing, the mother hurried to look for him, but she didn’t find him. The mother felt very sad and didn’t know how to face her husband.

When the father went to the police station after hearing that the son was missing, he looked at his wife and said just four words. What do you think the four words were? The husband just said "I love you, darling."

The son was missing. If she had picked him up earlier, this would not have happened. There is no point in blaming (責(zé)備) anyone. His wife had also lost her only child. What his wife needed at that moment was comfort and understanding from her husband. That is what the husband gave his wife. Several weeks later, with the help of the police, the couple finally found their lost son. The family’s relationship became stronger over that time.

Sometimes we spend lots of time asking who is to blame. We miss many chances to give each other support and let each other feel the warmth of human relationships. Get rid of all your unwillingness to forgive, selfishness, and fears and you will find the world is much more wonderful.

試題分析: 本文記敘了一對(duì)夫婦在孩子丟失后丈夫不是責(zé)怪妻子，而是表現(xiàn)出了對(duì)妻子的寬容和愛(ài)。以此表明一個(gè)道理：人們有時(shí)花費(fèi)許多時(shí)間追究責(zé)任，失去了許多相互支持、給予對(duì)方溫暖的機(jī)會(huì)

【1】C 猜測(cè)詞意。第一段告訴讀者，這對(duì)夫婦結(jié)婚后11年才有了這個(gè)孩子；第二段說(shuō)the mother hurried to look for him ，都表明孩子對(duì)他們寶貴，故選C項(xiàng)。

【2】D細(xì)節(jié)題。由第一段one day the father was very tired after work so he asked his wife to pick up their son 一句可知，父親因?yàn)?/span>“非常勞累”而讓母親去接孩子，故選D項(xiàng)。

【3】C 推斷題。根據(jù)最后一段Get rid of all your unwillingness to forgive, selfishness, and fears and you will find the world is much more wonderful.點(diǎn)明作者想表達(dá)的意思：我們應(yīng)該珍惜相互支持、相互溫暖的機(jī)會(huì)。如果人與人之間有愛(ài)，世界就會(huì)更精彩，故選C項(xiàng)。.

【4】D 推斷題。根據(jù)因?yàn)槠拮拥氖韬鲋率购⒆觼G失后，丈夫不是責(zé)怪、而是寬慰妻子，表現(xiàn)出寬容的心胸，故選D項(xiàng)。
